Description
With todays post I'm delving into a new technique in my photography, as there's always something new to learn! It's called Intentional Camera Movement (or ICM) and this shot of CSX Q512 pulling north through the siding at Crofton, KY on the Henderson Subdivision on September 26th, 2021 is my first image I'm posting using this technique!
Traditional photography - or rather photography as most expects it to be - requires the camera to be held steady and the subject to be sharp. Intentional Camera Movement (or ICM) turns that ideal on its head. By using a long shutter speed, the photographer can deliberately move the camera to paint with light and accentuate the tone and texture of the subject. In doing so, one can create stunning impressionist, abstract or minimalist images.
While this style or technique may not be for everyone and while it's like panning with your subject, but it is different as the movement can be and often is in any direction during the exposure. I'm excited to add it to my work and look forward to learning to do ICM photography and I hope you enjoy this abstract view of my world!
Tech Info: Nikon D800, ND 64 Filter, RAW, Nikon 10-24mm DX lens @ 10mm, f/16, 1.3 second swish, ISO 200.
